Do you want this installed?
No.
There is a control channel that the authentication string must be sent
to when talking to a bitlbee server. In BitlBee 1.0, the maintainers
switched from using #bitlbee to &bitlbee in order to differentiate it
from normal discussion channels. Around the same time, rcirc made
this change as well. This patch reverts back to using #bitlbee, which
is definitly wrong.
There is the problem that a number of people could still be using <1.0
versions of bitlbee, but my thinking was that they are pre-release
versions, and we shouldn't go to great lengths to work with them.
Perhaps the control channel could be pulled out into a defvar.

rcirc fails to authenticate with bitlbee. The error message is:
08:36 *** 401 &bitlbee Nick does not exist
The following patch fixes the problem for me:
